You can use these resources to help students both rote learn the words and practice the sounding-out of the suffix sound in the context of common simple words.

All the flashcards are designed to be printed onto regular US Letterhead paper (the sort of paper you’d put into your at-home printer!). Make sure you select the “shrink to fit” option when printing to avoid any cut-offs on your print.
